Elden Ring's PC requirements are now live, courtesy of the official Twitter account. We got a sneak peek at the minimum recommended system specs last week when they went live on Steam a bit early. They're still listing "TBD" on the platform as of the time of this writing, but they'll surely be updated in the next day or two.
Steam's leaked minimum requirements seem to be correct while the recommended system specs aren't out of the ordinary for recent releases. We'll list both minimum and recommended system specs below.
Minimum System Requirements:
- Windows 10
- Intel Core i5 8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X
- 12GB RAM
- Nvidia GeForce 1060 3GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB
- DirectX 12
- 60GB Storage
Recommended System Requirements:
- Windows 11/10
- Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600X
- 16GB RAM
- Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 8GB
- DirectX 12
- 60GB Storage
FromSoftware didn’t provide further details on what kind of performance one can expect with the recommended specs, but if they’re anything like most games you should be able to get 60 fps on medium graphics settings at 1080p resolution. Minimum settings will likely be 30 fps on low graphics settings at 1080p.
Compared to recent releases like Deathloop and Dying Light 2, Elden Ring requires a bit more CPU and RAM, but a little less from its graphics processor. Not requiring an RTX 2060 might be a boon for some who are still struggling to find a new graphics card in the silicon apocalypse we still find ourselves in.
In other Elden Ring news, more and more details of the upcoming action RPG are being revealed thanks to previews. One of the more potent items a player can find is a veil that lets them turn into a random nearby object like a crate or a shrub. This camouflage conceals the player from passing enemies, turning Elden Ring into a Metal Gear-style stealth title.
